Product Description

Warm lamp light, gleaming oak floors, the quiet stillness of a spring evening spent curled in the parlour with a good book & fine company. Halcyon was inspired by a beautiful piece of music, a score written by Rachel Grimes to accompany a silent film originally made in 1938. The film follows a family as they go about their day, doing nothing more remarkable than eating, gardening, working, living their lives together. It is beautiful in its simplicity, as is Rachel's music. I wanted to capture that feeling of quiet abundance, of home & hearth, of happiness in simple things.

Halcyon begins with a base of oak & vanilla that I've aged for nearly two years. Blended with exotic teakwood, feminine honeysuckle blossoms & sweet ripe pear, it's an unusual but inviting scent that wears so beautifully...

Since I work in small batches, you may notice slight variations in color from jar to jar. To prolong the life of your Sorbetto, keep it tightly sealed & avoid introducing excess water to the jar. A clean plastic spoon is ideal for scooping out just the right amount :) Please use Sorbetto within 3 months of opening, & discontinue use if irritation occurs. I specifically blend Sorbetto not leave a greasy film, but it may leave your tub a bit slippery, so do be careful :) Scrub up!
